OK, I have had this puppy for a week. She is now 7 weeks old. So any
advice for what I can do when I AM frustrated? I am simply exhausted with
getting up 2 – 3 times a night, taking her to work with me, taking her out
once an hour or two at work, never being able to have any time to even take
a shower or wash the dishes, much less focusing on work that takes
concentration and attention to detail. I cannot help ranting when she pees
on the rug–or even on the kitchen floor–one more time! I feel so upset
when she does that, whether I’m mad at her or at myself–what difference
doe sit make?? We can’t spend our days and nights in the kitchen–I can’t
get anything done. I am so tired I am dizzy.
My dog eats her pee pad when she is left alone for awhile. Her pee pad is
in her safe play area. How do we make her stop eating the pads?
Im sick of my dog. Pee everywhere, poop everywhere bite everything. He is
red toy poodle. But i love him. What should i do?
Zak, I am a first time dog owner of an 8 week golden retriever. I am trying
to teach my pup to stop play-biting human skin and your videos really help
a lot. You just earned a subscriber! Thanks for the videos.
So I have a 13 week old puppy, and I’m 15 years old and I have to go to
school for eight hours, my brother who is 18 years old is home on certain
days so he can help me take care of my puppy, but on the other certain days
my brother will be in college for almost an entire day but he will come
back home but not till later during the day, and my puppies young I don’t
want him being home alone for so long it’s going to scare me a lot ): I
don’t know what to do what do any of you people suggest can you please help
me? it would mean a lot to get help (:
How did he get that shot in the air?
Best video ever, Zak!! And Ohmygosh what an adorable puppy! I love the
puppy videos because I have a puppy and I certainly need the refresher
course but you also remind us all about training a dog with patience and
love. Training takes time, possibly months, and I think this is so
important to share. Thank you for your videos!
Ahh remington is such a cutie! Im going to be getting a jack russel in a
few months and will be watching all your videos! Nervous but ready for the
challenge
can dogs get through a fence
I’m new to your videos, because I’m getting closer to the point in my life
where I might be able to reasonably adopt a dog and I want to make sure I’m
up to date and have the time and have the techniques known, especially
since I know I want a larger higher energy mix.
I have to say, I love the fact that you approached MidWest– I’ve owned
many small animals, and MidWest also makes the best homes for small
animals– I’m glad to know that I can rely on the brand when I am ready to
add a dog to my family.
Is cheese always your most preferred high-reward treat?
I tend to get frustrated when my dog Ruby play bites my hand or my feet
Omg this reminds me when my puppy’s teeth were growing. He used to bite me
and make me bleed! I felt so hopeless because I he wouldn’t stop and I
would cry thinking of giving him away. What I came to realize was that I
wasn’t making enough time to train him not to bite; I thought 5-10 minutes
was enough lol. Since I did want to keep him and teach him not to bite, I
made time and trained him for an hour or two everyday. I tried different
strategies but what worked the best for him was making crying puppy sounds/
yelping and asked him to kiss me instead. When he kissed me I rewarded him
and when he didn’t I kept yelping until he got it. Every puppy is
different, just be more patient, make time to train and discipline your
pup. It will be worth it in the long run. Hope it helps!!
My dog brave is teething and he bites me
We just got an almost 8 wk old Corgi puppy and though his name is Chibi
we’re thinking he should be called “Chompy” lol.. Cause he gets so bity
that he flails around chomping on the air like a shark. He bites our pants
at the ankle and tugs or our hands or whatever in certain moods..
Anyway, it seems like you know your stuff so it might help. How early can a
puppy be trained to stop biting ppl?
I’ve been saying No! and then giving him a toy each time he’s biting us but
I’m not sure if he gets that I’m saying “hey, chew this instead” or if he
thinks it’s a reward cause he’s getting crazier lately. I know he’s
teething but it’s hard to not get upset cause those teeth are sharp ;(
I just got a 3 month old bull mastiff whippet mixed born on 9/11 my
question is what’s the best way to start potty training my little puppy
here and he seems very smart and attentive. in a few hours I had him leash
trained and how to come when called and goes on the training pads but won’t
go outside why?
In Sweden its illegal to keep your dog in a crate indoors unless the door
is completely taken off.
Getting a Chihuahua please make a video about there diet
Une approche douce et intelligente. Je recommande hautement cet homme pour
vous guider dans l’éducation de votre chien et chat je dirais même !
Zak, I liked this video and how excited and how much energy you have,
however, waving your arms around and doing all that talking with your hands
can actually cause a puppy to bite more. I think you missed a great
opportunity to talk about how calm motions/ behavior from the human can be
helpful when the pup is going through a bitey time.
I am incredibly blessed with the dog that I have, he hates being away from
me, even when he’s off leash outside. One time he tried to chase a rabbit
but the moment that I was out of view he panicked and came flying back. 🙂
He’s a great dog!
If anyone reading this comment is considering getting a Belgian malinois or
a mix thereof (what I have), DO NOT underestimate the exercise they will
need! They are a HIGHLY energetic breed! They will not be happy with a
couple quick walks, they need at the bare minimum one long walk (and I’m
meaning at least an hour, preferrably longer), and at the very least about
an hour of playtime. They need to be constantly challenged mentally.
They’re awesome dogs, but never get one if you aren’t wholly committed to
taking care of them. They do not make good pets if you just want a couch
buddy.
It’s not so hard to stop play biting. Get a clicker and start training
“give me a kiss” and “poke my hand” for example and your dog will poke
instead of biting. It worked with my dog 🙂
And yeah, clicker training is like magic. Start is from the first second of
getting your dog. Remember the first 6 months of a dog’s life is called
“sponge stage”, that’s when they learn the quickest, and the stuff they
learn will stay with them forever. So don’t waste time! :D
Hi zak i was just wondering if jack russells are good swimmers?!
I’m going to have to watch this video again. Sorry Zak but I barely
listened to you, hard to concentrate with all that cuteness.
I’m still quite a few years away from being able to adopt a dog of my own,
but I love watching all your videos Zak in preparation.
My house is sort of in a circle with about maybe a dozen, a dozen and a
half houses. Whenever I walk my puppy, he refuses to go past the circle.
What should I do to encourage him to walk more?
